Week 2 waiver wire pickups and FAAB bids
Week 2 waivers run Sep 15 – Sep 21, with most leagues processing Wednesday morning. Every name below comes off the live Draft Waiver board: value over replacement at the position, how soft the defense in front of them is, and how much offense they are attached to. Bids are a share of a full-season FAAB budget, so scale them to what you have left.

What matters most this week
- Deebo Samuel (WAS, WR) is the week's top add — smash spot matchup @ DAL, worth about 6% of a full FAAB budget.
- Dallas Goedert is the cheaper way in: same tier of usage at roughly 6% FAAB.
- No teams are on bye, so bid conservatively — the pool stays shallow.
- Roster space: Trevor Lawrence is the safest cut if you need a spot.
